I think I may be asking a question with an obvious answer, but do you believe in OSM as a project? What do you think its long term goal should be or even is? Like, what is the endgame? Completely replace something like Google Maps? Having everyone use it as the main platform for looking at a map?
I sometimes wonder if OSS projects should have aims that ambitious. I can't imagine a world in which people would all be using open and free standards, and I think it's because I've become so accustomed to the commercial aspect of developing software as things currently stand. What I think I might be asking for is actually your overview and opinion on OSM as a project and what we could expect of it, going forward.
I don't know, I don't like how this video was linked and it isn't news, per se, but I took the time to find something in the video and they show a clip of CNN. Now, I'm not American and I don't watch CNN, but they reported that the counter offensive on Ukraine is not going as planned and, in fact, it didn't advance at all.
Maybe OP could have linked this here, or maybe not, but most people on the US tend to consider CNN as at least a little credible, unless I'm completely out of the loop. Take that as you will.
